Why a Designer Keeps an Antique Jar in Her Bathroom of All Places (It's So Clever!)

"The goal is to not have them out on display, but to have them hidden. Yes - you can use the storage you have in your home, but sometimes it's nice to have them nearby when you run out! Plus, some of us don't have the most storage in our bathrooms and ANYTHING helps."

"According to Lafferty, you can find really great jar options at HomeGoods for reasonable prices. You want to make sure that the jar is large enough to fit several toilet paper rolls and that it comes with a lid. However, you can also find great deals on these when shopping online, too. This jar on Amazon, which is inspired by antique ginger jars, is about the same dimensions as the jar Isabella found for her bathroom."

"A few people in the comments say that to really sell the idea that this jar is purely decoration and not a vessel for more TP, you could put it on a small table or pedestal to give it height and make it look more like decor. And others say this idea is a win, especially in bathrooms low on storage space."

Large vintage lidded jars provide concealed storage for extra toilet paper while adding decorative character to bathrooms. Jars should be large enough to hold several rolls and include a lid. HomeGoods and online retailers offer affordable options, including ginger-jar–style pieces and taller jars around 20 inches. Placing a jar on a small table or pedestal can make it read as decor rather than storage. This approach works well for pedestal sinks, powder rooms, and bathrooms with limited cabinet space. The solution keeps extra rolls accessible for guests and seasonal gatherings while maintaining a tidy appearance.
